Hi all,
i was wondering if there is any ready-made method to trigger an action as
soon as a link changes state.
Along the lines of
onifdown_em0="/run/this/script"
in rc.conf
Background:
Discussing physical data security with a client yesterday: The machine has
to run 24/7. The filesystem is encrypted on boot, but this doesn't help a
lot if anybody brings an AC generator to steal the machine *AND* the UPS.
Best point in time to lock the machine I could think of was when somebody
pulls the NIC cable.
Regards,
Michael
